Hot Spot: Location to be revealed the day of event to attendees
Deets: Le Dîner en Blanc Los Angeles will celebrate the fifth edition of its chic Parisian-inspired ‘secret’ picnic on the evening of Saturday, September 29, 2018 at an undisclosed location in Los Angeles. Last year more than 2,000 guests joined together for an amazing evening of food, drink and live music and dancing under the stars.
Thousands of guests are invited to attend an elegant picnic at a ‘secret location.” Established in France 30 years ago, Le Dîner en Blanc is a chic, pop-up style picnic, where guests dress in white from head to toe. The outdoor phenomenon is held at a secret location only revealed upon arrival. Guests meet at one of the predetermined destinations and are greeted by a guide who transports them to the final picnic location.
Beyond the spectacle and elegance of the dinner itself, guests are brought together from diverse backgrounds by good taste, music and a love of beauty. Le Dîner en Blanc recalls the glamor of high French society, and guests engage one another, knowing that they are taking part in a truly magical event.
To maintain the uniqueness of Le Dîner en Blanc as well as staying true to tradition, guests must observe certain requirements and follow a few key rules:
- Once confirmed, each guest’s participation becomes mandatory, regardless of weather conditions. This is a rain or shine event.
- Dress code: elegant and white only. Originality is encouraged as long as it is stylish and tasteful.
- Table setting: all white!
- Champagne and/or wine only. Beer and hard liquor are prohibited.To ensure that the location secret is kept undisclosed until last minute, guests meet at assigned departure location and are escorted by a Dîner en Blanc volunteer.
- As per Los Angeles alcohol laws, guests cannot bring their own alcohol. Guests wishing to enjoy wine or Champagne must reserve online through the Dîner en Blanc’s e-store. Guests are, however, welcome to bring their own non-alcoholic beverages.
In order to leave the event location as clean as when they arrived, guests are required to leave with all their belongings, leftovers and litter.
Guests must bring:
- A table, two white chairs, white tablecloth.
- A picnic basket comprising fine food and proper stemware and white dinnerware.
- A catered picnic basket option, which can be picked up on site, will be available for those who do not wish to pack their own. Guests wishing to do so must reserve online through the Le Dîner en Blanc Los Angeles website.
